    That's what happens when you play with deteriorating 1970's technology.
    If you've got the manual, there should be a schematic in there. The PSU
    in that radio is quite clever, it takes mains down to 12V then it all
    goes into a DC-DC converter with 24V for the PA and the varicap tuning
    as well as a few -ve rails for the receiver bias. A lot of the internal
    wiring used wire-wrap onto posts which is probably very brittle after
    40+ years.

    You'll probably find a manual on Rigpix if you don't have a paper one.

    i am fully aware of what you say,i have the service manual but it doesent tell me what i need to know,ie what pcb's get a feed from the top rear left hand side pin on the rear of the psu when viewed from the top front,if i can get that info it should be

    I don’t have a service manual / circuit for the TS700G, only the earlier 700A model. However, I suspect, in this area they are similar.

    The ‘coax’ is actually screened wire- similar at first look perhaps.

    There are two screened cables in that area on the circuit I have, one is labelled R8, the other end goes to the Rx / NB unit - both ends labelled
    R8. Usually the pins are marked on the PCB. On the PSU, R8 is at the junction of R16 and 17.

    The other is T8, it goes to the AF unit. Again pin T8. On the PSU T8, is
    the junction of R20 & 21.

    Again, the info is from a 700A circuit but, if you check, you may find it
    is the same.

    Good old radios. I have one of the digital display versions lurking (TS700S?)

    brian,the wire is soldered ok on the psu end i need to know where the other ie the af pcb end goes ok.


    Ah, I thought I’d included that, sorry:

    (Also, I think it is TB - the print isn’t clear.)

    The other end of TB / T8 goes to three places:

    A normally open contact of Relay 2.

    R16 (via a pin on the PCB) on the AF board. There should be a group of
    three pins near R16. Two on the edge of the board, a third set back. The
    centre conductor connects to the pin on the edge furthest from the corner.
    The other pin on the edge is the screen. ( third pin is unrelated)

    The TX lamp / bulb.

    Remember, I have the 700A manual, so check before you connect anything. If
    it looks the same, you should be ok.

    welcome back nice brian version....
    brian,the wire is soldered ok on the psu end i need to know where the
    other ie the af pcb end goes ok.


    Ah, I thought I’d included that, sorry:

    (Also, I think it is TB - the print isn’t clear.)

    The other end of TB / T8 goes to three places:

    A normally open contact of Relay 2.

    R16 (via a pin on the PCB) on the AF board. There should be a group of
    three pins near R16. Two on the edge of the board, a third set back. The centre conductor connects to the pin on the edge furthest from the corner. The other pin on the edge is the screen. ( third pin is unrelated)

    The TX lamp / bulb.

    Remember, I have the 700A manual, so check before you connect anything. If it looks the same, you should be ok.


    TS-700A was the US market version of the 700G that covered 144-148MHz.
    There was an earlier (no suffix version) with a different front panel
    layout (no repeater shift).

    Amazing what you forget, I had a borrowed 700G for a few months in
    about 1980 but had completely forgotten about the drive and final
    controls, I just remembered the row of switches that didn't line up and
    drove me crazy trying not to look at them.

    I think it had a Lunar Electronics pre-amp fitted, they were one of the pre-muTek favourites.

    Sounds about right.

    Either way, I suspect much of the circuitry is common.

    That would be right because the circuit in the handbook for my 700G
    never matched the VFO/mixer board. IIRC mine used discrete devices for
    the mixer and the handbook used some analog IC. But it's 20 years since
    I got rid of it. Another thing I vaguely remember is that the switching
    PSU produced some interesting noise sidebands on the signal.

    Just remembered I do still have a bit of it left - the crystal
    calibrator. I took this out to fit a RX preamp in the space.

    If you've got the manual, there should be a schematic in there. The
    PSU in that radio is quite clever, it takes mains down to 12V then it
    all goes into a DC-DC converter with 24V for the PA and the varicap
    tuning as well as a few -ve rails for the receiver bias. A lot of the

    I don’t have a service manual / circuit for the TS700G, only the

    The ‘coax’ is actually screened wire- similar at first look perhaps.

    There are two screened cables in that area on the circuit I have, one
    is labelled R8, the other end goes to the Rx / NB unit - both ends

    Good old radios. I have one of the digital display versions lurking
    (TS700S?)

    You let me down badly Jim. I was hoping you would spot that one of
    Brian's original cache of M3's was a QRO fan.

    "projects at the moment include a hf linear using 2x572 valves in
    grounded grid mode"

    Anyway, here's hoping to spot a nice cheap TS-700G at the next
    Horncastle rally.

    Since you are using an obviously forged post in order to perpetuate
    your persistent lies and slurs against me, is it safe to assume that
    the aforementioned forgery emanated from your very own keyboard?

    The only forger here is you. Glad to help.
